Hi Cybermac..

Nice model.. I love it.

Here in Indonesia this Boieng 737 is the most familiar Aircraft..
The new is Boieng 737-900 ER.. with a long fuselage.

I think it would be great if you make this.

Good job

Hello!

Thanks WB102!

It would be nice to see B-737-900 indeed!

Every new version of B-737 requires new engines and wings, so there is going to be a major work to do before I can make B-737NG, BBJ, B-737AEW&C or P-8...
(good scale drawings would be essential!!!)

I am planning to do NG versions as well, but first will be '400' and '500' as they are the closest ones to '300'.

'400' series needs a longer fuselage with a new set of windows, but '300' is very easy to convert to '500', and here is a drawing...

Hello!

Paint.net seemed to be a bit rough, till I found two usefull 'plugins' which allow 'rotation' and 'mirror'.
So I am learning how to use them effectively for mirrors and other B-737 stuff

Good to see you are still at this my friend... rotation in your prog will be VERY beneficial to you

Hello!

Finally I found an acceptable drawings of the landing gear and a wheel wells. I just started from the main wheels.

And here is what I have done till my printer went on strike demanding a new cartridge...

Sorry for the quality.

Keep on going, Cybermac,

Your results sofar are very promising.
Like many others I think it will be an Honour to let my printer-ink run dry on your B-737!

Greetings

Hello everyone!

I am back on B-737!
Last days I designed the wheel from the front gear.
Not much time to focus on the model, but 'every little helps'

Hey Mac, looking good. When you have got all the calculations made for this cart, please remember that some guys like to build tyres using stacked disks and sanding to profile - might be a good idea to make several notes along the design path for this purpose. You are doing a great job my friend.

Are you going to do a Southwest version with the optional opening sunroof?

**Cybermac** · #40 04-16-2011, 07:00 AM

Good spot Peter!

I used to do like that myself - cardboard discs, sanding and black paint.
So there are going to be two versions of tyres:
- first - the one above,
- the second - drawings with dimensions and card discs.

Southwest painting scheme is one of my favourite, so there is going to be one I hope, but 'sunroof/cabrio' versions is only good for a sport cars
